WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon is temporarily pausing flights again of
its fleet of V-22 Ospreys after weakened metal components possibly
played a role in another near crash, the latest setback for an embattled
aircraft whose safety problems have grown.
That vehicle is a legendary widow-maker. Cool idea, but I can't think
of a single military aircraft responsible for more deaths than the
Osprey.
With luck, whoever is named Secretary of Defense will scrap it. At some point one has to accept failure and move on.
